Before us is the story of a unique Jewish Bible from the tenth century, which was used by Maimonides himself.

Journalist Matti Friedman of the Associated Press gathered numerous documents and eyewitness accounts and proposed an original version of what happened... to this manuscript when a mob of rioters threw it out of the burned synagogue in Aleppo and it ended up in the newly formed State of Israel.
